<p><em>Overridable</em>: By template specialisation into the <code>convert</code> namespace.</p>

<p><em>Default</em>: If decayed <code>X</code> is same as <code>U</code>, concept <code>value_or_error&lt;U&gt;</code> matches, <code>X::value_type</code> is <code>void</code> or is explicitly constructible to <code>T::value_type</code>, and <code>X::error_type</code> is <code>void</code> or is explicitly constructible to <code>T::error_type</code>, then <code>operator()(X &amp;&amp;)</code> is made available.</p>

<p><code>operator()(X &amp;&amp;v)</code> tests if <code>v.has_value()</code> is true, if so then a <code>T</code> with successful value is returned, else a <code>T</code> with unsuccessful value. If the input type was <code>void</code>, a default constructed value is used for either, else a move/copy construction from the source is performed.</p>

<p><em>Namespace</em>: <code>BOOST_OUTCOME_V2_NAMESPACE::convert</code></p>
